Post Amazon Kindle: Tuesday Reviews

More reviews of the Amazon Kindle continue to be published, some are positive and some are negative. All have value.

Sometimes the Kindle was slow, as the device lagged behind the button presses. In those cases we'd overshoot the menu or options entirely. Still more times we encountered a lag or a flickering fade-in effect as the Kindle transitioned among menus and changed pages. The lag wasn't so onerous that we couldn't use the device, but it was annoying - and it became very pronounced when we tried to virtually flip ahead several pages at a time.

Frankly, anything that gets more people reading is a good thing, no matter how they do it.

Will people really give up the pleasure of holding a book and turning page after page? Will they really give up that final satisfaction of reading the last page, closing the book and giving one more look at the cover design, the short biography of the author on the back cover -- and maybe even a quick appreciation of the publisher's note about the book's typeface? What about that final slamming shut of the book, a kind of crisp sound signaling: "That was really, really good!"
Winona Daily News
We attach significance not only to the author’s words on the page, but to the paper, the ink, the binding, and the cover design. We often judge books by their covers, though we know we shouldn’t, but we also develop relationships with certain books based on their tangible reality — how they feel in our hands, how they smell, how the pages have worn over time with stains, dog-ears, and marginalia. Each book contains more than just the story printed on the pages; they have lives of their own, which we experience whenever we crack open the cover.
